I'm starting a more flexible thread as a compitition. You may post photos of Trainz [Real Ones] from websites as long as you acknowledge the photographer and they do not include inappropriate images. Good Luck!
*Guidelines*
One Entry per Person
No negative comments
Photo's from websites must acknowledge the author
You may post your own
Be a good sport!!!
This contest is for individual taste and a keen eye for good work, more challenging. NO NEGATIVE COMMENTS, I WILL HAVE THE MODERATOR DELETE THEM! oh and I want to say that I wish all my "rials" luck!
Cheers, -Woody.
Yet another *EDIT* voting will take place next week, 3-8-09 to 3-15-09.

IC... And just what does this contest prove, if a person uses ANOTHER PERSONS IMAGE WITHOUT THEIR PERMISSION. They didn't take the photo, therefore they can't have any claim to it, other than for finding it. They may be acknowledging the photographer/author, but I also can't see the photographer/author being too impressed by someone using their photo (which is copyrighted material) for a contest without their prior permission.

Thread reported, as this WILL lead to a fight, due to you asking people to breach copyright for their own gain (in this case 'winning' a contest, even if it doesn't actually give them anything other than a 'congratulations, you won' message).

You know what IC, now that I think about it, S301 is right. Some of those photos are copyrighted, and those people who took the photos wouldn't be happy if they found out their stuff was posted on other forums without their permission. It wouldn't make sense if someone posted an image that wasn't their's and they won even though that person didn't take it. My entry has been deleted for this thread.

This thread is on very shaky ground guys so I'm ending it. Best to use your own images.
